This from the New York Star is
Democracy to the core: 1T is idle
to talk of disposing of the surplus
so long as the taxation remains the
same. The surplus must accumu
late so long as the taxes continue.
Therefore the best way to put a
atom TO the surplus and avoid an
otberwfse inevitable panic which
must result from collecting SO much
money every year from the people
and holding &c in the Treasury, is
10 s,on collecting it. Let it remain
- the rockets of the people, where
Il will surely circulate. instead of
piling it up in goyernmeenGs vaults ~

Another Tarin BIN.

Another LoFAM BILL
Wheeling Register.
Since The Morrison bill viii not
be considered, we are glad to see
that the Randall Democrats are
getting ready q measure for the re-
duction of the revenue and the re-
vision of the tariff that will doubt
less be far more acceptable 70 the
people. All are decided that the
taxes must be reduced even to a
greater extent than proposed by
Col. Morrison and the question OF
how is now under consideration.
Il is likely that the bill will pro-
pose the repeal of the revenue on
tobacco and on spirits that are used
in the arts and mannfaci ures.
Also it IL likely that the duty on
sugar will be reduced and some of
the coarser woods that are not rails
ed in this country and nre import
ed for making cheap fabrics will be
repealed and the tariff on the finer
woods raised as high rs It was be-
fore it was reduced by the Republi
cans. There may also be reduc-
tions made in regard 20 iron ore,
lumber and salt. The tariff on
steel rails is now SIT on the tom
This is much higher than il neces-
sary for protection, and will NO
doubt be greatly reduced.
Such changes as the above will
make a reduction greater than Mr..
Morrison proposed and will bring
down the revenues to something
near the expenses Of the Govern
ment.
There will be but eight weeks
more of this session of Congress in
which to reduce the taxation, and
with other important bills already
under consideration, it will take
active work to effect anything be-
fore adjournment. But the people
demand all the speed possible.
A Matter for ThOught-ROnds.
American Agricultural for january.
Good roads not only Rave horse.
flesh, but vehicles. Take what
are ordinarily called sgood roads,
and "bad roads," and q vehicle
used on the first only will last
twice as long, at least, as one used
on the latter only. No one can
doubt that country roads would be
fifty per cent. better than they now
are, if the labor and money put
upon them were properly applied.
How to have that work and money
properly applied is the matter to
be discussed now, that the best
methods may be- made ready for
adoption when the season for road
making comes. Whether or not
the road-bed should be only surface.
drained, or underdrained with tile,
or by putting in corduroy founda-
ton; whether or not gravel, or
plank, or tile-these are points to-
be decided before spring. The
farmers, club should also discuss
specifically the repair of each high
nay in the neighborhood. This
will lead, among other things, to
an understanding whether or not
1t will be proper to shorten a high
way by Strengthening it; whether
a road that now goes around a hill
should be carried over it by grad
ing down the hill, or whether max.
ing a road longer by carrying it
around a hill will be compensated
for by the less grade; how to keep
weeds from growing in the high
ways, to seed the adjacent land,
aud many other points which. thus
being settled. wnnld greatly add TO
the improvement of the roads.

How cruel to the heart of the
Republican party must appear the
spectacle of Democratic President
of the United States, and South
Carolina Comptroller of the Cur
rency urging upon Congress the
justice of paying to the colored
men of the Nation the money which
they lost through the rascality and
Encouragement of Republican
politicians in the Freedman's Blu
reau swindle. The President, in
his message to Congress, urges the
payment of the 50 per cent. which
was short when the bank failed, on
the ground that the colored citizens
of the country were induced to de.
post their funds upon the suppo.
sition that the Government guar.
anteed its security and payment.

FOULLY MURDERED.
Discovery ofa Skeleton Which Proves to be
 the Remains of scotty Tucker.

A notice appeared in the CHAMPI-
 ON last week stating that the remains
 of a mar had been discovered near
 Mund's rance, about fifteen miles
 south of here. After Coroner Ford
 left Flagstaff, last week, on his return
 journey to Prescott, he stopped al the
 place to inquire into the clrcumstan- ces and if necessary hold an inquest.
 On examining the remains, from
 which all the flesh was gone except a
 small quantity attached to one foot,
 a small portion of the hair also re-
 maining, evidence was found that it
 was the remains of Scotty Tucker, an
 old hunter, that has been missing for
 nearly two years. A bottle of water,
 a pipe, tape line and an old shot gun with both locks gone were found
 lying by the side of the skeleton. There was unmistakable evidence that he had been murdered as a con- siderable amount of shot was found on the ground under the remains and a quantity of shot was found lodged against the vertebrae, show ing that he had been fired at from behind.
 Scotty Tucker was last seen alive in September, 1885, when he was camping with several parties a few miles south of Flagstaff. He took his gun and dog and went out of camp to hunt for some game for sup per. He did not return and was nev- CT seen again alive. Diligent search was made for him without success and short time after a rumor was that he had been seen to board an A. x P. train with his dog and gun at Ash Fork. Since that tune it has been a matter of doubt with many of his acquaintances wheth- CT "Scotty" had left he country or had been killed The close proxlm. lty to Flagstaff of the place where he was last seen and no trace being Ioult Of him favored the opinion that he had quietly left for parts unknown. But the finding of his body shows that he was foully murdered within a short distance of the camp where he was last seen alive. It is doubtful ifI any trace will ever b. found of the

OVER THE MINERAL BELT.
Pleasant Trip Over the New Road and Thence to the Aztec Cattle Com
 pany's Range.

In company with Major Henry
 Warren, manager of the Az'ec cattle
 company and MT. John V. Rhodes, {
 representative of the CHAMP ION made
 a trip over the newly constructed
 Mineral Belt railroad few days since.
 By the courtesy of General Mo Donell, an engine was placed at their
 disposal and the new line was trav-
 erSed from Flagstaff to the termina.
 ton of the track, a distance of IT
 miles. Alter leaving Mill Town the
 line runs through a very beautiful country, plentifully supplied with fine
 pine timber, interspersed with parks
 through which the road winds its way.
 There is very little steep grading and
 only one cut of any extent. The road
 bed seems to be in excellent condition and the train rolls over it very easily. Just beyond the end of the track IS the construction camp, where every body seemed busy. Here the party was treated with every courtesy by Gen. eral McDonell, Messrs. Kennedy and Hickman, MT. Leek their superin- tendent, Chief Engineer Pendleton and other officials of the road and construction company. After partak- ing of dinner with these gentlemen, a wagon, which Major Warren had sent on to the end of the track, was entered and the party drove down Clark's Valley, passing over the range and by the ranch now leased by the Babbett Brothers, reaching Morinonderry, situated by the Nor mon Lake, sheet of water from SIX to seven miles in length and fifteen miles in circumference, where a call was made on Judge Smith. From thence start was made for sycamore Springs, one of the settlements of the Aztec land and cattle company, about fifteen miles southeast of Nor monderry. Here Mir. E. J. Simpson, assistant manager of the company, and Mir. F. E. Ames, who has charge of the construction and land depart mentS, were met at the residence, which IS the quarters for the western portion of the range, Here halt was made for the night, the travellers thor oughly enjoying the hospitality oi Messrs. Simpson and Ames, after their long and tlresome ride.
 Sycamore Springs is among the fin est springs in northern Arizona. They are situated some little distance above the camp to which point the company is now piping the water, which will plentifulIy supply all the needs of that portion of the range. All around there is splendid agricul- tural land in the valleys, which, be- fore many years have passed, will be occupied with prosperous farms.
 Next day return was made to | travelling about 40 miles over a beautiful tlnbered and rich | grazing country. The whole face of country passed over was Tn fine con- 1ition with plenty of water on the ranges. The cattle looked well and everything seemed in a prosperous

A Bad Habit.

A very common and disagreeable
habit, which is found more particularly
among the young girls, is criticising
and commenting on the appearance
and dress of those around them. They
are fond of setting themselves up as
authorities on dress. They are posi-
tive they know Just what colors 90
together, and the woman who does not
dress according to their code in their
opinion has no taste whatever. A
woman passes them on the street or
enters car in which they are seated
She has on a color or style of garment
that they have not seen before. Isn't
that horrid; don't like that, do you?n
one asks. No, indeed, / call that
poor TASTE" replies the other. If the
person criticised hears the remarks she
feels anything but comfortable, but
whether she hears them or not, to
thoughtful person the remarks made
display more poor taste than anything
else. If these girls were told this
they would be surprised that they of
all others should be accused of bad
taste, yet such is really the case, for any
refined person knows that it is exceed
ingly bad taste to comment on either
the manner or dress of any person in
public or private. The sooner such
girls dispense with this habit the bet
ter it will be for themselves, for no
person can be attractive who INDUCES
in such an uncharitable occupation. -

ParlOr MOnstrOsities.

Never buy anything for the home
that doesn't combine one or both of the
qualities of use or ornament. 1t is often
surprising to notice that many beauti-
full things are inexpensive. To fill
ones parlor with dust-catching card
boards and woods, that if fairly pretty
to begin with soon accumulate dust, is
neither useful nor ornamental. Gilded
rolling-pin shovels, etc., are also
valueless. A Knous' Madonna, a pho
tograph of which may be purchased for
fifty cents, framed in quiet style of
frame for dollar, will give one more
lasting satisfaction than a whole room
full of gilded dust-pans, ribbon-tied
bread-towels and all the other senseless
things that you and |, dear readers,
have seen in parlors Chough rarely
and have been obliged to express II
mild amount of pleasure in them when
exhibited for our approval, and have
felt a gratitude to the old bachelor
who, when he was called upon to adj
mire the homliest specimen of infant
humanity he had ever seen, looked
upon it few minutes, drew in deep
breath and said, Well, this is a
baby" and we have eased our con-
science by this is an ornament. Let
us not tempt our weaker friends with
any more of these parlor monstrosities,

For the Nursery.

There is no medicine like fresh, pure
air and sunlight, if the sun is not too
hot. a child born in summer after it
is three days old may begin to be car
ried out every pleasant day. A slight
cold or indisposition should not prevent
this daily exercise. The morning and
evening are the best time for walk in
summer and the middle of the day in
winter. If mothers knew how essential
to the health of child the daily bath
was it would not be neglected as often
as it is. The slightest sickness, or even
the crying of the child, seems enough
for the mother to put it off till to-
morrow. There is nothing so amazing
as the ignorance sometimes shown by
cultured, educated mothers in the
management of their children. 1t is
not an uncommon thing for babies to
be reared by series of old wives
fables as superstitious as the stories of
a gypsy fortune-teller.- Erchange.
